Authentic Yorkshire Puddings Recipe - Classic British Dinner

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup milk
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup vegetable oil (or beef drippings for authentic flavor)

Instructions

7 steps

  1. Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

    Make sure the oven is fully heated before adding the batter.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.

    Sifting the flour can help remove lumps.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk the eggs and milk until well combined.

    Room temperature ingredients work best for a smoother batter.
  4. Combine Mixtures

    Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, whisking until smooth.

    Let the batter rest for at least 30 minutes for better results.
  5. Prepare the Tin

    Add oil to a muffin tin and place in the oven until hot.

    The oil should be very hot before adding the batter.
  6. Pour the Batter

    Carefully pour the batter into the hot oil-filled cups.

    Fill each cup about halfway for best rising.
  7. Bake

    Bake for 20-25 minutes until puffed and golden brown.

    Do not open the oven door while baking to prevent collapsing.
